These grants are about breaking down barriers and ensuring every South Australian can connect, learn and thrive in an increasingly digital world.
Access to digital technology is not a luxury – it's essential for work, education, connection and everyday life.
These grants are helping communities to gain the skills and tools they need to confidently engage in the digital world, access essential services and stay connected.
The grants will have a meaningful impact on people who experience barriers to digital participation. From digital literacy workshops to improved access for people with disabilities and support for regional communities, these projects will ensure that no one is left behind in South Australia's digital future.
